You can view the failure details with "adb logcat". You cannot access protected members in this way, because your class is being loaded by a different class loader. The package has the same name, so the compiler is happy, but at runtime it's not considered to be part of the same package. In a future release of the VM this will cause an IllegalAccessError at runtime rather than a VerifyError at startup. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Android Developers" group.
